2023年9月15日，欧盟食品安全局（EFSA）发布消息称，拟修订氯氟醚菌唑（mefentrifluconazole）在多种产品中的最大残留限量。
根据欧盟条例（EC）No 396/2005第6章的规定，BASF Agro B.V. Arnhem (NL) Freienbach Branch提交了该修订申请。经过评估，欧盟食品安全局得出结论，根据所报道的农业实践，短期和长期摄入因使用氯氟醚菌唑而产生的残留物不太可能对消费者健康构成风险。部分原文报道如下：
In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant BASF Agro B.V. Arnhem (NL) Freienbach Branch submitted a request to the competent national authority in Austria to modify the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for the active substance mefentrifluconazole in various crops and swine liver and other swine products. The data submitted in support of the request were found to be sufficient to derive MRL proposals. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement are available to control the residues of mefentrifluconazole in the plant commodities under consideration and in animal matrices at the validated limit of quantification (LOQ) of 0.01 mg/kg. New data relevant to the data gaps on storage stability and feeding studies of triazole derivative metabolites (TDMs), that were identified during the peer review of confirmatory data of the TDMs, were submitted in support of the present MRL application. based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the short-term and long-term intake of residues resulting from the use of mefentrifluconazole according to the reported agricultural practices is unlikely to present a risk to consumer health. EFSA noted a narrow safety margin with regard to acute exposure to mefentrifluconazole residues from the intake of spinaches if residues occur at the level of the proposed MRL. EFSA also performed an indicative risk assessment for the TDMs based on uses of mefentrifluconazole only. The estimated exposure for TDMs did not exceed the toxicological reference values.
